Need help planning a 14 day tour of Italy.
-Need suggestions on where to rent a car to travel from Rome to Amalfi and back (everything I found for 5 days is more then 45USD a day)
-Need recomendations on where to stay for the following: Rome 1 night, Naples 1 night, Capri 1 Night, Amalfi 3 nights, Florence 2 nights, Tuscany 2 nights, Venice 2 nights (200 USD a night will get too expensive for 14nights)
-Need advice on what the best method of Transportation (railpass, oneway train ticket) from Rome to Florance, Florance to Tuscany, Tuscany to Venice and then Venice back to Rome would be for the above itinerary.
Any input would be great. Advice from a local or someone who has been would be the best. Airfare is already booked and paid for can not change this trip now.
Thank you in advance

Dont stay in all the cities you plan to travel to. When I went to Italy I stayed in the hotel that was in the middle of all the cities, yet closest to the ones I wanted to spend more time in. All you have to do is get up to catch an early train to cities for day stops.
In the big places like Rome and Venice just walk everywhere. The main attractions are fairly close together and it is good exercise.
Make sure that you plan out most things and dont plan on the last train out of town for the night. And to be on the safe side drink bottled water and dont play tooo much in the fountians.
(the water that flows in them most likely comes from the fountian before that and before that and before that and so on)
I hope you have a good time

Are you insane? Don't rent a car, use the trains, far easier and in the long run a lot cheaper. You won't have to pay for fuel, parking or the tolls. Anyway, you can't use the car in Venice.
You have 2 weeks. Pick 3 locations at most and stay there. Far nicer. Florence is in Tuscany, so you can say time there, Capri and Amalfi can both be reached from Naples on a day trip (you'd have to get up early, but it's doable) and instead of Capri I'd recommend the island of Ischia, which you can reach from Pozzuoli near Naples.

You can definitely drive everywhere and may not need to stay in all the different places. I don't remember where we stayed and how much since my mother paid for everything but I did all the driving. We did so much in 2 weeks. Even went down to Sicily.

Dont travel with anybody thats rude, gets angry easily, and cheap. It helps in the long run.
